How to Memorize

galore - aplenty

Analysis

The informal word ‘galore’ is used to emphasize that something exits in scarcely believable quantities and is therefore readily available. It is generally used in a positive sense rather than to denote there is too much of something, thus separating it from words such as 'glut’. The term is what is known as a postpositive adjective, meaning it always comes after the word it is describing.

Example(s)

1. There were bargains galore in our summer sale and customers snapped them up in record numbers.

2. As a confirmed foodie, I can’t wait to visit that city as I have read that it has restaurants and cafes galore!

3. The movie had spectacular stunts and action scenes galore, but there was very little depth or nuance to it.
